He's tall. He's tough. He's the king of the hardboiled private eyes, and he's stalking the rain-swept streets of postwar Los Angeles. He's Philip Marlowe, here with twenty thrill-a-minute episodes produced and directed by Norman Macdonnell.

Tough-voiced Gerald Mohr plays Raymond Chandler's Marlowe as a man who has been burned by the world a little too often for his own good. He finds mysteries amongst valuables and the violent, facing down false witnesses and frame ups. And on one stormy winter night, his past catches up with him.

Includes a program guide by radio historian Elizabeth McLeod.
